I have looked on Pinterest and other websites… my parents are divorced, so I think my mom wants to get my dress for me as a wedding present (hooray!) I’m going to try to wait to do any serious shopping until I’m with her. And, of course, engaged! What kind of dresses are you ladies looking at? Veils? Trains? I just want a simple white column. I’m only 5’0 tall, so something with frills or tulle or giant poofy elements might not be the look I’m going for! 🙂

Holy moly you guys, my bf proposed today! He totally surprised me – I did not think it was coming this soon. It was sweet and intimate, just me and him at home, exactly how I wanted. I couldn’t be more excited to spend the rest of my life with my best friend.

I would love to be added to the list please! Officially waiting now. We looked at rings last night and he’s pricing stuff out.  I still have around 9 months to wait. 🙂

Bought mine 5 months ago. But it’s a non-traditional dress.

nelliemade : that’s cool and a brave move to try on the wedding dresses. There’s one I really want to try on.
pawneegoddess : yes I think dress regret would be too real.
baygull : I agree. I really want a Maggie Sottero dress so I know which designers. Don’t give into temptation.

averria : princessg56 : msmousingeeep : littlemisspetite : at least we’re mostly on the same boat with pinterest and online window shopping. I think it provides a good opportunity to see what you’d like.
penny1403 : yes, there’s a clean up 2x a year so inactive members get swept off the list. The last clean up was April so they’ve at least been on then.

ats7377 : have you looked at Pronovias? They have dresses which may suit what you have in mind. I have more or less crossed ball gown off my list and am leaning towards mermaid or trumpet.
baygull : congrats. Beautiful ring.
carakist : you’ll be added next list.
2ndchance : wow. Are you sure you won’t get dress regret?

becks90 : I’m going to say though…. I cheated. I have had the opportunity to try on dresses once already.
The ones you like and the ones you think you like, be prepared to throw what you think you know out the window once you see it on your body. Its like buying regular clothes but 100x exaggerated. What you see on the mannequin (models) that looks “ugly” to you ends up looking nice and vice versa.

I picked my dress a few years ago lol. I wasn’t actively looking at dresses, nor have I looked. But I saw a fabulous picture of a dress on Facebook and loved it so saved the picture on my phone and that will be my starting point.
But I haven’t really been looking at dresses.
